History is a very important part of who we are, Wargaming is a company who's franchise is based firmly in the past. Below you can see a video detailing the marrying of both history and gaming as the RAF museum together with Wargaming rescue and then exhibit a World War 2 Dornier17. It shows a wonderful community spirit from both parties but also the desire to preserve a piece of history.

Pilots!Greetings from Wargaming Special Projects Team!

We recently unveiled Wargaming.net Dornier 17 Interpretation Zon at the Royal Air Force (RAF) Museum in Cosford, England. The video above tells some of the story of the plane, the excavation, and the exhibition unveiling.

As previously posted, we partnered up with the RAF Museum and recovered the only known Dornier 17 aircraft out of the ocean. This totally unique light German bomber was a major part of the Battle of Britain during World War II. It is currently being doused with citric acid in a restoration tent, to prevent it from succumbing to the elements after over 70 years under water.

The exhibition is now open to the public. However, anyone who can't make it out to the UK to see this amazing aircraft can download our augmented reality mobile app for visualizing the plane at specified locations all around the world. Submit your photo of a virtual Dornier 17 near you, and you will be entered into a contest to have your photo featured at the unveiling of the next Wargaming.net RAF exhibit in London in early 2014.
